Shaped, molded and pressed cookies
Pistachio Biscotti
Pistachios and orange enliven this typical Italian biscotti recipe. Biscotti recipes call for baking the cookies in a log first, then slicing off the cookies and baking them again to yield the classic dry, crisp biscotti.
Scottish Shortbread
Traditional Scottish shortbread is plain and simple, but utterly delicious. Make it in a shortbread pan (mold) for a decorative cookie.
Italian Rope Cookies
These wreath-like cookies are excellent for dipping and enjoying with espresso, milk or orange-flavored tea.
White Chocolate Rounds
